Tarzan Arrives At Microgaming Online Casinos

Tarzan, the branded slot game from Microgaming, has gone live. Tarzan was announced a few months ago and there has been a regular build up since then. Normally Microgaming releases new games on the first Wednesday of the month, but has given this practice a skip for Tarzan. Promos of the video slot have out for a month so there are no surprises. The reels are set in the background of a dense African jungle with the audio of drumbeat and other forest sounds. Tarzan stands to the left of the reels and gets animated in the big wins and bonus features, letting out his trademark yell.

The symbols are in 3D but crafted in a cute toy-like manner bereft of reality. The visual appeal is fantastic, but this may disappoint ardent Tarzan fans. The trademark Tarzan logo appears as a stacked wild both in the main game and the free spins. It also awards the highest line payout of 800 times the line bet. Tarzan, Jane and Jane’s father are the human characters from Edgar Rice Burroughs tales that appear as symbols. They appear as normal symbols and in two high stacks. The jungle animals are represented by leopard, monkey and parrot. Great ape, elephant and lion would perhaps been more appropriate in the Tarzan context. The low paying symbols are melon, orange, apple and plum. It is surprising that there are no win animations.

The Bonus Wheel is the scatter symbol and first it awards scatter payouts multiplied by the total bet when two or more land anywhere on the reels. The top scatter payout is 100 times the total bet. Three or more bonus symbols trigger the Bonus Wheel which will award one of four features. You can win a jackpot of 1000x the total bet. You can win cash prizes that depend on the number of scatter symbols in the trigger.
More exciting are the free spins feature and bonus game on second screen. You will be awarded 12 free spins with both Rolling Reels and Growing Wilds. Rolling Reels has now been used in several Microgaming video slots. In Growing Wilds the wild symbol stack grows by one in every spin. Pick-A-Potamus is the bonus game. You can pick up to 12 hippopotami and win bonus credits. But if any of them pop then the feature will end.

Tarzan is a fixed 40 paylines video slot with a maximum total bet of $200 per spin. You can play it at Microgaming online casinos like All Slots, Royal Vegas and Spin Palace.
